The company's main system (RMS Real Estate Management System) RMS is the main application that runs on IBM RISC 6000 system with AIX Operating System and INFORMIX Database Management System. This application composes of 3 parts 1.1 Financial Module - For the cash outflow, all the transactions of the year 1999 had to be entered into the system within the 3rd week of December.

Form 57 (Y2K) of SANSIRI PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED Progress Report on Preparation for Y2K : Report No. 4 (ending at 31 March 1999) During last week of the year 1999, Financial Department will transfer the data of the year 2000 from IBM to PC. Also all the related reports have to be printed out for further reference. This can help them to continue their job on PC if there is any problem occurred during next year. - For the cash inflow, all the transactions of the year 1999 should be completed within the 3rd week as cash outflow. However, to make it more flexible, we allow the user to input the extra transactions into the system if there is still some transactions left (as we expect.) Anyway, user has to update the Cash Inflow Report everyday in case that there are extra transactions added on to the system on that day. For the transactions of the year 2000, user can enter the data into the system as usual. During the last week of the year 1999, user has to print out all the necessary reports (concerning the expected cash inflow transactions of the year 2000) for further reference. - With the plan commented above, we are confident that the Financial Department can prepare the year 1999's Cash Flow Report on time. Moreover, for the transactions of the year 2000, the Financial Department can continue their work with semi-manual operations by using spreadsheet software on PC.

Accounting Module - Usually, Accounting Department prepares financial statement every quarter.

Moreover, user will prepare the draft of financial statement as of December 31, 1999. If any problem occur on January, 2000, we can continue our work on PC as Financial Department.
